Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Henry Polic II appears as Walter, who is arguably the most incompetent robber in the his history of crime. Not only does he drop his holdup note on the floor of diner--Alice (Linda Lavin) helpfully retrieves it--but when time comes to claim the dough, the cash register gets jammed. Inevitably, the staff takes pity on the incompetent thief, who despairs that he'll never be able to do anything right...but fate intervenes in the form of an extremely pregnant woman (Lupe Ontiveros) who suddenly goes into labor.
